All who want and like can be members here, even they are from different countries, different languages, different cultures, different religions...and why not different education levels? How much are other members tolerant with who don t speak very good English language, with people who don t know rules very good, with people who want to be here, but they can t be so good as other more smarter members? So, people are different, but can they tolerate each other withaut consider that others are inferiors? I don t talk about friendship here because , step by step i think that this word is more and more a empty word.

There are lots of people here that are tolerant of those that do not write perfect English. I'd say most of us are tolerant of that. The rules that get broken people are quick to point out to members so that they don't repeat their mistakes. Friendships can be made here, I've made lots of friends on this site

Don't let the few spoil things for you. There are idiots everywhere you go online whose sole purpose is to mess with people. Just don't let them get to you :)

Hi, i like your shoes...any way, maybe i like to say what i think, and i don t like when people want to be as they are not in real...more smarter as others are; to be tolerant, sometimes is a sign of wise , intelligent and really smart people

Mylot is absolutely an international community, a place to meet and make friends with people from countries around the world. It is very unique, and very pleasant forum to communicate regardless of the nationality and culture. Language may be a barrier some times, but mylotters certainly try to help one another. This may even be a place to practise and improve one's English language skills.

Dear icesmile, every day I see you sadder and this saddens me too 'Friendship' is not an empty word but it is the word itself which is abused nowadays. Friendship is still what it used to be but there are many who do not know what it means and that is the difference In my world offline, just like here online in myLot, I make no difference whatsoever about the age, nationality or gender of other Lotters. There is a place for everyone and each one of us deserves their slot in the world whatever they have to say and whatever is their culture or level of education. Each one of us can teach others something and we all have something to learn from others too. Here there are people from countries less fortunate than others and those of us lucky enough to have more in our daily life can learn a lot from those people who manage to get by with much less than us. I have always admired those users who do not have English as their first language but even so they have the courage to come here and post and join in the fun. THOSE are the users who put even more effort into every post they make because they have to think so many times before submitting! The only ones I cannot tolerate are those that cheat, but we'll keep thewm for a different discussion

Diana, you are one person very friendly indeed. You right, is hard for somebody who don t speak English as someone who have this language as mother tongue...but they try, and work, and sometimes read a post 3,4 times to understand and answer or start a new topic.

When i start this discussion i was really sad because i saw one of my friend who tell me that want to leave this site, because shes English is not very good and people like to make jokes and are sarcastic....somebody who know very good English can be sarcastic, because know to use words very good....we who don t know all expression in English can be just polite, and try to make other, who think that they are more smarter, to understand, that we can be more sarcastic and spiritual in more languages as they know and speak...is just a matter of snob people.

hi icesmile mylot is a place for everyone, newbies do commit mistakes which is normal and understandable and yeah not all the people in this world speak good english, i am not good at it myself, it's because we are born at different parts of the world and have different mother tongues, that doesn't mean we can not tolerate their grammer, it's so nice to meet them, and probably a lot to learn from them too, it's so nice to have so many different people out here and to listen to what they have to say, these all make a discussion more interesting, we get to learn more about other people and their culture, and yeah they can make nice friends too... this world has so many different people and so does mylot. Blessings.

Hello! MyLot is not the place for everybody. Intolerant people, fanatic, who cannot respect different views... Those don't belong here. You may have a religion. You may have a culture, a language, you may be different. But you must respect. Respect above everything. After all, here is a place where you can learn a lot. Probably, one of the places I have learned most about life, met different kind of people and everything. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

Hi, we want or not, people are different, and not all can be the best, as not all can t be English teachers.I hope that you right about intolerant, fanatic, people no ideas, who know just to criticize, who start a discussion just when they want to criticize, i hope that they will know that all of us can be here, is not a place just for few, experts in English.

Mylot is for everyone and it is a general place for everyone of different educational level. Mylot is a good place to improve writing and also our English language command. Not everyone is very fluent in speaking and writing and having the chance to improve is a very good thing. Helping one another here makes mylot a more meaningful place to be. After all, I find mylot is flooded with tolerant nice people.

Hi, few hours ago, when i post this discussion, i was really angry because i saw people who forgot that people are different, and not all resume in how good or bad we speak fluent in English....so, we need to be patient, and why not as not all people who speak English very good, because they was born with this language in theirs mouth can be all time more smarter as others why try a lot to give nice discussions, ...we must respect each others. Here is a problem with people who think that they are superiour; they are not.

Mylot is a place for everyone. A free place where everyone can share and discuss with others. It is indeed true that some of us dont write that well, spell well or discuss great. Yes there maybe inferior but there will also be people in the lower levels andt hose with same level can tolerate one another.

I have the most agreement with you my dear friend.. it's not easy for some who has different background to be here, however I welcome everyone. I don't think MyLot is a place for us to judge English, how we use the language, as long as the person who wrote responses, and comments are able to be understand by the reader. I think MyLot is a place where we do not know much about a person, and we can accept no matter what the person put in the discussion.. it's also more of your own preference, as if you think you like that discussion and you understand it, you post responses, and vice versa.. Let's open our arms, and make this place somewhere that everyone can be here..

Actually the fact that there are people from all over the world with all kinds of different backgrounds is one of the main reasons that I was drawn into mylot. I see that there are people from different countries that don't speak the best English, but that doesn't bother me at all, all that matters is that I can understand what the person is trying to say. It doesn't stop me from contributing in a conversation that I think is relevant if the person that posted the conversation doesn't have the clearest language. So my opinion is that mylot is a great place for all different kinds of people.

Hi, theory is very good, we know what must to be this place, but sometimes i just wondering if all people know what you say before; to be tolerant is a big quality, and is a honor problem

In my opinion mylot is an social site which allows the whole world to interact. There is no contraints such as language, religion or country. All are the same here.

Yes, I agree. There are people from different countries, we can see populations on mylot are high in lots of countries. Besides that, some of them like to create dicussions and do postings nicely and politely, some of them respond to discussions really rude and against the discussion extremely. For me I'm just a regular kind, do postings to make earnings, try my best to accomplish what I can do here :-) By the way, I have to say you always can create some interesting topics that I always want to respond! Keep up your good work, Icesmile!

We come here no only for friendships ,improving English level . We can share questions ,opinions about something .Although we are different from one to another ,we still can find common hobbies ,problems to discuss . As for me ,I want to meet people all over the world .

In mylot we have different members from different countries, languages, cultures, religion and education levels. Some of them are professional and some are not. Some are smart people and some are ordinary. As long you can relay on the discussion, give comment and advice and share experiences. Even though they were not good in english or even in the spelling as long they can relate I don't think you cannot find answer to your questions.

It is a certain place for anybody here who can make friends and have a lot of fun! So do you think that only native english speakers can be a member here?And i do think it is also a place for non-native speakers to practise and improve their language skills here.
